Why teams connect Cin7 and Eloqua

Feed the real customer, order, and revenue records from Cin7 into Eloqua so campaigns run on who actually bought what, and let contact and consent changes flow back in real time.

Marketing runs on lists of people, but the list rarely knows which of those people are paying customers, what they ordered, or what they are worth. Cin7 holds exactly that: Sales orders, Purchase orders, Contacts, Branches / locations that record who the customer is, what they bought, and what they owe. When the two are joined only by a periodic export, campaigns go out against stale audiences, existing customers get prospecting emails, high-value accounts look the same as cold leads, and a canceled order still counts toward a segment.

Stacksync syncs Sales orders, Purchase orders, Contacts, Branches / locations in Cin7 with Emails, Forms and Form Submits, Contact Lists and Segments, Contacts in Eloqua in real time, and where both sides accept writes, in both directions. Customer, order, and invoice data maps field by field onto the contacts, audiences, or accounts Eloqua works with, so segmentation and personalization run on current purchase history instead of a month-old snapshot. Contact details and consent changes that originate in Eloqua flow back onto the record in Cin7.

The strongest bridge between the two is identity and purchase history, who the customer is and what they have bought, so that is where most of the value sits. Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps the attributes the other has no use for; only the shared records are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate stock movements from multiple branches into one reporting database.
  • 02 Publish Cin7 inventory levels to storefronts, marketplaces, and a CRM so every channel quotes real availability.
  • 03 Load purchase or product-usage records into Custom Data Objects linked to Contacts so nurture campaigns branch on behavior mastered in another system.
  • 04 Add or remove Contacts from shared Contact Lists and Segments based on lifecycle stage computed downstream in a database.

Common sync patterns

Where Eloqua captures new people: signups become customer records

Registrations, form fills, or new subscribers in Eloqua create or update the corresponding record in Cin7, so the back office sees them without anyone re-keying.

Consent and contact changes travel

Email, address, or subscription-status changes stay aligned across both systems, so a customer who updates their details or opts out is respected everywhere.

Purchase history drives segmentation

Orders, invoices, and revenue totals from Cin7 land on the matching contact or account in Eloqua, so audiences are built from what customers actually bought and spent rather than from guesses.

What you can sync between Cin7 and Eloqua

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Cin7 objects Eloqua objects How this pairing syncs
Contacts Customers and suppliers, matched to CRM records to keep account data consistent. Contacts Core person records, keyed on email address as the unique identifier; imported/exported via the Bulk API and upserted on email, synced two-way with CRM, warehouse, and app databases. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Sales orders Orders captured from all channels; the main object for fulfillment and revenue syncs. Emails Email creative and email-group assets managed via the Application REST API; usually read for reporting rather than written by a sync. Sales orders is specific to Cin7 and Emails to Eloqua — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase orders Supplier orders synced with procurement and accounting workflows. Forms and Form Submits Form definitions and their submission data, accessed through the Application REST API; submissions read out into a warehouse for lead capture and analysis. Purchase orders is specific to Cin7 and Forms and Form Submits to Eloqua — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Branches / locations Warehouse entities that scope every stock movement and order allocation. Contact Lists and Segments Shared lists (static) and segments (dynamic audiences); Contacts are added to or removed from shared lists based on lifecycle stage computed downstream. Branches / locations is specific to Cin7 and Contact Lists and Segments to Eloqua — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stock adjustments and transfers Inventory movements read for audit and reconciliation reporting. Accounts Company records linked to Contacts via the account-linkage field; moved through the Bulk API and typically mastered in a CRM or ERP and written into Eloqua. Stock adjustments and transfers is specific to Cin7 and Accounts to Eloqua — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Credit notes / returns Return documents synced so finance and support see the same refund state. Custom Data Objects Auxiliary data tables (CDOs) linked to Contacts for records like event registrations or purchases; synced via the Bulk API so nurture campaigns can branch on them. Credit notes / returns is specific to Cin7 and Custom Data Objects to Eloqua — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Cin7 and Eloqua

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Cin7 Eloqua Sub-second propagation

DetectionCin7 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on modified-date filters.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Eloqua through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Eloqua Cin7 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Eloqua for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via Bulk API exports filtered on a contact/account modified-date field using EML filter syntax.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Cin7 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Cin7: Subject to per-account API rate limits that differ between Cin7 Omni and Cin7 Core.
  • Eloqua: Per-instance soft limits by sync type (Export 2,000/hr, Import 2,000/hr, Sync Action 4,000/hr); 32 MB cap per POST to a staging area and 50,000 records per retrieve batch.
